hey guys i have searched on the forum reguarding the headlights and what can be done to them. i've read about baking them to paint them. but i was wondering has anyone has had any experences with the ebay blacked out ones? also has anyone used the blackedout with hid setup?

thanks in advance

 

A lot of people have painted headlights but not everyone does them right. If it's not completely sealed your headlight will build condensation on the inside of the lamp. also hid's won't be affected because it's painting the back of the headlight behind the actual projector. Look up Mr. Zipps. Has awesome work. and do youself a favor and if it seems too good to be true on ebay don't get it. You have a highend sports car. Do you really want to cheap out on the parts? G/L bro

 

I bet I'm cheaper than any set you buy off ebay. What year do you have? If you need them done quick, send me a PM. I don't have another set of lights to paint till next week some time.

 

No, you don't. You have a Nissan. Do what you want.

 

 

What? You wanna tell me the Z is some rare, museum-quality car? It's a new Datsun, for chrissakes.

 

i smell ricer : )

 

I don't recommend the ebay lights. They are not set up for HIDs. The halogen headlight and HID headlight have different internals. First of all you will have to open a hole at the bottom of the headlight to attach the ballast. Also, the lower chrome reflector is to close to the bottom of the housing which you will have to remove to run the wiring for the ballast. Your stock HID bulbs won't fit in the halogen housing unless you swap it with an HID projector.

Trust me its a big pain in the ***. Your better off customizing your own headlights. Send me an email or PM me if you have any additional questions.

 

The only reason I would consider those eBay lights is to steal the outer clear shell. The rest of the headlight would be worthless to me.

 

I'm glad to see someone thinks highly of there Z.... go put a chrome grill and altezza on your Z...
